Jeans And A Nice Top

This week we're talking "baggage lite" - the stuff you've got going on in your life (from shared pets with exes to going through a big split) that you don't need to bring up first thing on a date... but you do kinda need to bring up at some point. How do you do it in a chill way? And do you ALWAYS have to tell someone your sh*t?

Think of this as the unofficial follow up to the previous episode about texting your ex. So you've been dumped. Maybe you even texted them on Christmas after your 500 mimosas. Now, it's time to BLOCK. THEM. EVERYWHERE. We talk about the power of the block, when and how to do it, and why it's gonna make your life a million times better (trust us).

This week, we're talking dating fatigue – again. But if you're not feeling it so hard that you need a break from the apps, maybe the solution is to reframe the game – and get yourself back to a place where dating's fun again. Ash has some hot tips, and we also discuss micro-disappointments, and how they build up BIG time.

This week on Solicited Advice, we help a gal out with the age-old drama - dating someone who wants to stay casual and non-exclusive (when you want to get exclusive). Is it ever possible to be happy in a non-committed relationship? Er, no – not unless you're both on the same page about it.
